Cruise Ship Interiors Design Expo Europe (CSI Europe) have announced their latest CDP-certified content schedule, in partnership with NEWH. Designers, architects and buyers from cruise lines, shipyards and design studios including Meyer Turku, Virgin Voyages, Seabourn Cruise Line, P&O Cruises, Cunard, Marella Cruises, Mystic Cruises, SMC Design and Studio DADO, will be discussing the most relevant trends featured both landside and in the European cruise industry. Plus, Sustainable Design Summit will be hosting their final Working Group of the year onsite, sponsored by Morbern Europe.
In a sad day for the industry, Greg Walton, of Studio DADO, a revolutionary force in cruise ship interior design, will retire at the end of 2024. Visitors can jump on a last chance to hear Greg discuss cruise ship interiors, with a trip through the past and a no-holds barred look at the future.
Attend Transforming Key Spaces: Innovative approaches to refurbishment and be the first to hear as SMC Design reveal exclusive details on their role as project lead for AROYA Cruises’ refurbishment, scheduled for completion this December. Bringing back the popular Meet The Brand sessions, attendees will hear first-hand from Royal Caribbean on the brand’s latest wave of innovation as well as insider tips on how the supply chain can strengthen their relationship with the brand. In Meyer Turku’s session, Charting Ship Materials, the shipyard will share exclusive insight into their NEcOLEAP project and how they envision a sustainable stateroom.
The hospitality track encapsulates the cutting edge of guest experience, ranging from the advances in technology that have lead to leaps in what’s possible in cruise ship design to the landside trends transforming guest expectations. Scheduled sessions will include Bright Ideas! Inspire with theatrical lighting and LEDs and People Flow and Activating Spaces. If you’re questioning how competitive socialising, the trend reinvigorating landside venues, can spark inspiration for your future projects, then join MSC, SMC Design, CONDUCTR and Blooloop as they host a discussion on the future of entertainment on board cruise ships.
The Cruise Ship Interiors Awards return on 5 December to celebrate half a decade of spotlighting the best of the best in cruise ship interior design, from small ships that stun to sustainable products that safeguard our future.
